Marucci Albert Pujols Pro Model Wood Baseball Bat - AP5NB

Marucci is quickly becoming "The Hottest Brand in Baseball".

From the design to the cut, Marucci hand crafts every baseball bat to the specification of each professional player—over 300 of them. Their concentration on quality ensures that every baseball bat is a “gamer.”

Marucci's process begins in the forests of Pennsylvania, where they select pristine lumber. From there, the Marucci shop in Baton Rouge hand crafts thousands of wood baseball bats each year for some of baseball's most notable names. Any player who steps into the box with a Marucci has the confidence to know they are swinging the best bat in baseball.

This is Albert Pujols’ signature Marucci model. The AP5 has a tapered handle and moderate to large barrel. The bat was originally designed to give Albert total control at the plate. The tapering provides great balance for a large barreled bat. The AP5 also features a high level of wood density. It is engineered for hitters who are looking for balance and power in their swing.

Pros: This is the best wood bat I have owned. Everything about it is top notch. You can tell when you hold a Marucci wood bat that they are really aware of the details of the bat and the finish is awesome.

Pros: Great wood bat. The ball flies off this bat. If you're someone who can handle a little bit of end load this bat is perfect. The handle and flared knob feels great. For those of you who care, the sound of this bat is beautiful.
